Pack The Place In Pink

Last night was the annual Pack The Place in Pink event at our high school. This is the 5th year. It doubles in size each year. We weren't filled to the rafters last night, but we were close. They raised tens of thousands of dollars with this event this year. The football players alone raised $1800 selling pink "live strong-type" brackets. The money used to be donated to the Susan G. Komen fund, but now only a small portion goes there. The rest stays in our community to help local families with expenses related to cancer--any cancer. It's an amazing event, and we are proud to support it.

The mayor, honoring our ladies volleyball coach (in dark pink in the background), who started this event and continues to lead the way. In the background, standing on the right are the football players who will next present her with their big check.

The mayor and the coach. She hugged everyone!

A great crowd of pink from both sides of town.

I think the prince and Lakota have an important cheer job here.

I think they are making sure none of the cheerleaders have their skirts stuck in their underware.

The band, rockin' the pink.

Oh yes, there was a volleyball game too.

We lost the match but did win one game.

A little cheer action.

Okay, now they are doing what they do best.

Smile boys! I'm sure their skirts are fine.
